Population dynamics of pocket gophers
 
My research project is the home range, dispersal, and survival of the Ozark pocket gopher (Geomys bursarius ozarkensis).  This fossorial rodent is restricted to Izard County, Arkansas and is considered a pest.  Due to its isolated range, pertinent information about movement patterns needs to be studied to understand the potential for expansion of this subspecies.  In addition, I am going to be collecting parasites and genetic material of these gophers.
